^{page 604 note 2} Bauckham uses Charlesworth, J. H.'s translation of the Odes (The Odes of Solomon. The Syriac Texts, edited with translation and notes [SBLTT 13 = Pseudepigrapha Series 7, Missoula, Montana: Scholars, 1977]) which accounts for the numbering of the verses as 17–19.Google Scholar By creating yet another numbering system for the Odes, Charlesworth has only added to the confusion begun earlier with Harris, J. R. and the first French and German editions.

Throughout this article, the numbering of verses will be taken from the Harris/Mingana edition as that has become standard for most scholars of the Odes and such uniformity should be advocated for publications on the Odes in the future.Google Scholar
